Berman discusses a recently unveiled issue regarding members of the US armed forces who are restricted from traveling on leave to countries in the United States Central Command Area of Responsibility (AOR), which now includes Israel.

Keller-Lynn talks about her upcoming feature regarding Arabic language education in Israeli schools and why Israeli Jews who learn Arabic can't actually speak the language.
